**Ready to “SNAP” Your Students’ interaction in Classrooms for the Future and 21st Century Teaching and Learning Experiences?**

**Goal: Showcase CFF/EETT student learning statewide using multimedia clips posted to the PDE website.**

As part of the CFF Mission, on 1.11.11 we are //launching//  a SNAP SHOT DAY of CFF/EETT students actively learning. Pennsylvania Department of Education will provide a space on the PDE Portal for a Google map. A link to the shared Google Map will be sent to the listserv.

 To participate, create a 2-3 minute video produced on or about January 11, 2011. This clip should show the **instructional impact, influence or changes**  that have taken place in your school as a result of the CFF program. Examples:
 * Classroom interaction
 * Groups of students or teachers chatting about changes
 * Charts of student achievement and teachers talking
 * Collaborative project based learning
 * New communication technologies in action
 * Your ideas?

=<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">**Guidelines:** = <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">To make the greatest impact, your video should take into consideration :
 * 1) <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"> Students in rigorous engagement.
 * 2) <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">No talking head shots. However, for example, a student’s response to a teacher prompt that is especially good, is fine. EX: Teacher: “Very good. How can you prove that idea?” Student: “Well, I can find data on the Census site or Wolfram Alpha, as well as...”, etc.
 * 3) <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Good lighting (Do not shoot into the lighted window - it silhouettes the people)
 * 4) <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Be sure the audio is clear and clean without background noise
 * 5) <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Frame your shots with limited clutter in the background (avoid cluttered walls or images)
 * 6) <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Keep the frame with 1-4 individuals. Large group shots are harder to see.
 * 7) <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Put a title to your video at the beginning
